Yakobo 1 - Bibiliya mu Kirundi coroshe

¹ Jewe Yakobo, umukozi w’Imana n’uw’Umwami Yesu Kristo, Ndabaramukije mwebwe abo mu miryango cumi n’ibiri mwasanzariye mu mahanga.

Amageragezwa n’amarushwa

² Bene Data, munezerwe cane, igihe cose muhuye n’ibibagerageza vy’uburyo bwinshi,

³ kuko muzi neza ko iyo ukwizera kwanyu kugeragejwe bituma ukwihangana kwanyu na kwo gukura.

⁴ Ukwihangana kumaze gukura, guca guheraheza igikorwa cakwo kugira ngo mubeho muri abantu bakuze kandi mukwije vyose, ata co muhajije.

⁵ Nihaba hariho uwo muri mwebwe akeneye ubwenge bw’Imana, akwiye kubusaba Imana, kuko itanga cane kandi ibikunze. Nta we itera imiragwe kuko ayisavye, kandi azobuhabwa.

⁶ Ariko igihe asaba, abe yizeye adakekeranya, kuko umuntu akekeranya ameze nk’umupfunda wo mu kiyaga, uhuhwa kandi uzungagizwa n’umuyaga.

⁷ Umeze atyo ntiyitege ko hariho ico azoronka kivuye ku Mwami Imana;

⁸ kuko ntiyiyeguriye Imana, afise imitima ibiri, ntashikamye mu kintu cose akora.

⁹ Abizera kandi bakenye barafise ico bakwiye kwishimira, kuko Imana yabashize hejuru.

¹⁰ Ariko abatunzi bo, bakwiye kwishimira ko Imana yabacishije bugufi. Kuko bazokurwaho kurya kw’ishurwe ryo mw’ishamba.

¹¹ Izuba ryatse ubushuhe bwaryo bwumisha igiterwa; ishurwe ryaco rigakoroka n’ubwiza bwaryo bugakurwaho. Uko ni ko n’umutunzi azokwuma ari mu bikorwa vyiwe.

¹² Harahiriwe umuntu yihanganira ibimugerageza, kuko inyuma y’ukugeragezwa, niyarama azohabwa igitsibo c’ubugingo Imana yasezeraniye abayikunda.

¹³ Iyo muntu ageragejwe, ntakwiye kuvuga ngo: “Imana iriko irangerageza.” Kuko Imana itageragezwa n’ikibi, kandi ntigerageza umuntu n’umwe.

¹⁴ Ariko, umuntu wese ageragezwa n’ivyipfuzo vyiwe bibi, hanyuma bikamusunikira mu mutego.

¹⁵ Ivyo vyipfuzo bimaze gutwara inda, bivyara icaha. Icaha na co kimaze gukura, kikavyara urupfu.

¹⁶ Ntimuhendwe bene Data nkunda.

¹⁷ Ingabire yose nziza kandi itunganye iva ku Mana Data, yaremye umuco wose wo mw’ijuru, kandi muri we ntihigera habaho guhindagurika kurya kw’igitutu.

¹⁸ Yahisemwo kutuvyaza ijambo ry’ukuri, kugira ngo tube nk’ivyeze ubwa mbere mu vyo yaremye vyose.

Kwumva ijambo no kurishira mu ngiro

¹⁹ Bene Data bakundwa, mumenye iki: umuntu wese yihute kwumva, yitonde mu kuvuga, atebe kuraka,

²⁰ kuko ukuraka kw’umuntu kutamushikana ku bugororotsi Imana ishaka.

²¹ Nuko rero, mwitandukanye cane n’ibintu vyose bishobora kubanduza, hamwe n’ikibi cose, mwemere muciye bugufi ijambo ritewe muri mwebwe, rifise ubushobozi bwo kubarokora.

²² Kandi iryo Jambo ntimupfe kuryumviriza gusa, mwihenda. Ahubwo mukore ico ribabwira.

²³ Umuntu wese yumviriza iryo jambo ariko ntarishire mu ngiro ameze nk’umuntu yiraba mu maso mu cirore

²⁴ hanyuma, amaze kwiraba akagenda agaca yiyibagira ubwo nyene uko asa.

²⁵ Ariko uwusuzuma neza ivyagezwe bitunganye kandi bitanga umwidegemvyo, hanyuma agashishikara kubikora, ntiyibagire ivyo yumvise, ariko akabishira mu ngiro, uwo ni we azohabwa umugisha mu vyo akora.

²⁶ Abiyumvira ko bemewe kubera idini ryabo, ariko ntibirinde mu vyo bavuga, baba bihenda kandi kuba mw’idini kwabo nta co bimaze.

²⁷ Idini ryemewe kandi ritunganye imbere y’Imana Data wa twese ni ukwitaho impfuvyi n’abapfakazi mu marushwa yabo no kwirinda kwanduzwa n’isi.
